Ingredients

Ingredients for Purple Cabbage Salad:
  • 1 medium head of purple cabbage
  • 1 avocado diced
For the Dressing:
  • 3 Tbsp chopped dill fresh or frozen
  • 3-4 Tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil or flax seed oil
  • 1/2 cup fresh squeezed or good quality store-bought Orange juice
  • juice of 1 medium lemon about 2 Tbsp
  • 3/4 tsp salt; or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper or to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Finely slice the cabbage; a mandolin slicer works great and shreds your cabbage really finely, but it can definitely be done by hand using a sharp chef's knife. Place cabbage in a salad bowl.
  2. Cut avocado in half, use a spoon to scoop out the good stuff and discard the skin and pit. Dice avocado and place it over the cabbage.
  3. Combine all dressing ingredients: 3 Tbsp chopped dill, 3-4 Tbsp fresh parsley, 3 Tbsp oil, 1/2 cup fresh squeezed OJ, 2 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice, 3/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper. Just before serving, stir everything to combine.
